Story: Black friday 2020
It’s exactly on Black Friday today, November 29th, 2019. I am thinking about what I really need in my business for 2020. I already searched for earbuds before. It’s for productivity during work and my hobby.
I came up with the presentation equipment. I even didn’t know how to search for it. It’s generally said presentation accessories. This is what I want to get before a presentation in 2020.
*I don’t consider the huge venue. Because the organizer will prepare equipments for you. I assume this is for a presentation in classroom size.
Software:
– Powerpoint
– Keynote
– Google slides
I use keynote. If you don’t have MacBook, Google slides is alternative, it’s free.
For presentation:
– Laptop (with adapter, mouse, speaker)
– USB memory for backup
– Portable projector
– Remote clicker
– Pointer
Basic preparation:
– Business card
– Handouts for audience
– Water
– Candy for throat
Extra:
– Easel Pads
– Live audience polling software
– Video recording (cell phone with tripod)
Portable projector

The portable projector should palm size. I care about the angle adjustment of the projector, but I don’t want to carry a huge tripod. To be honest, I am not willing to pay more than $200. About resolution, it’s depends. When I checked the blog below, the projector is relatively expensive.

It is an interesting differentiation, Logitech and others. The website tells me who the target audience is. Logitech focuses on the high-end market, like a Ted speaker. Other companies look like a classroom user, professor or student.
Conclusion: 1 homework you have
I like shopping which has a certain purpose. I didn’t know these products, but some companies dedicate to these small products before booming. I can imagine, how long they discussed in the company for this project.
These are just gadgets. It’s part of the performance, support materials. You have to build your presentation. You have to tell your story with beautiful slides. The presentation is a gift. Should be purposeful and meaningful. Not easy, but absolutely improve if you practice.
Let’s get practiced!
